lyrics

It starts out black but it ends up white
Stars only shine half way tonight
It's said to be right, but it's not okay
Well, that's what it's like to be in love with Shade

It never works out just the way
You planned it for that special day
and now you see that it won't convey
What a shame to be in love with shade

What a shame to be in love with Shade
The clock only ticks for that sucky day
At first it was perfect but now you see
That this the worst time to be
oohh in love with Shade.

You're sick of life being so darn tough
and all of that political stuff
You turn around and you recognize
That you've wasted half of your life.
Oooh what a bad day.

What a shame to be in love with Shade
The clock only ticks for that sucky day
At first it was perfect but now you see
That this the worst time to be
oohh in love with Shade.

I'm so sick of your shade
I'm so tired of your rain
So take your stuff and realize
That you are out of my life.

It starts out black but it ends up white
Stars only shine half way tonight
It's said to be right, but it's not okay
Well, that's what it's like to be in love with Shade.
